Let’s rewind to October.
We had no idea what we were going to get from Purdue basketball. We knew we had some known commodities:
- Trevion Williams was going to be an all-Big Ten caliber player in the middle.
- Eric Hunter Jr. and Sasha Stefanovic were experienced guards.
- Aaron Wheeler was a player that has struggled, but was expected to provide veteran minutes.
- Isaiah Thompson was a sophomore that had some freshman moments, but also gained valuable experience.
- We knew that the toughest Big Ten, top to bottom, perhaps ever was a daunting task in front of us.
